Discrimination
You cannot be denied housing on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, handicap, or familial status. However, there are some exceptions. You may contact the Kentucky Commission on Human Rights for more information.
The U.S. Office of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) offers the following signs of possible discrimination:
You are told the unit you wish to rent is not available when it really is.
You are offered different rental terms or conditions from those offered someone else.
You are being directed to rent in a particular neighborhood in order to keep people of your particular race, color, religion, sex, or national origin from obtaining a unit in a certain area.
If you feel you have been discriminated against, call HUD's toll-free number 1-800-669-9777; or call the Kentucky Commission on Human Rights at 1-800-292-5566. These agencies can assist you in filing a complaint.
